Tracks and signs are part and parcel of studying mammals Ron. So many are nocturnal and elusive , often the only way of studying these creatures is by what theyve left behind. Despite this, i`ve yet to come across a comprehensive info source for tracks and signs in the UK.If enough people contribute, we`ll have a pretty unique resource on WaB
If you have pics which need ID`ing its probably best to post them on their own thread. If we can keep images on this thread to ID`d species, it`ll help to avoid confusion
